The two old parties are
twin frauds.
Leep your skirts clear of these
democratic primaries.
McKinley’s message seemed to
bo a 1-e-w-t-l-e mill-dewed.
The Candler boom has so mate¬
rially cooled down that it car. now
be handled with perfect safety.
All the courts, all the laws and
all the armies of the world cannot
settle a thing until it is settled
right.
The less manhood and inde¬
pendence a man has the easier it
is for him to join the bushwhack¬
ing brigade.
We'll bet a four dollar dog that
the democratic party at its next
state convention will straddle the
silver question without rippiiigits
pants.
We have been trying our best to
get a tail hold on prosperity for
several years, but up to the time
of going to press old adversity has
a strong grip on the country, and
prosperity is not yet in sight.
The republican stato executive
committee of Alabama, at a meet¬
ing recently held at Birmingham,
called ft state convention to be held
in Montgomery on June 7, when a
full ticket, it is said, will be put
out.
In a month or two it will lie in
order for the old line party organs
to begin talking about farmers IX s
“honest and sturdy yeomen.” and
all our workmen as “stalwart eons
of toil.” Flection time will be
around again next fall, and the
chestnut stove is being renovated.
For six or seven years our peo¬
ple have been making good crops.
No famine has occurred to prevent
the making of crops; no plague
has come to destroy those that
were already made. And yet, ilia-
ny workers arm producers are
actually in want. Who is to
blame?
In speaking of the threatened
war with Spam and its probable
effect on southern farmers, Com¬
missioner of Agriculture Nesbitt
has this to say: “Should war be¬
come a certainty, the probable ef-
ect in the price of cotton would
be in oft disastrous, while provis¬
ions would take a corresponding

Ol’R friend IS dead.
The sad intelligence- reached our
little town last Saturday evening
of the death of one of Polk county’s
most prominent citizens—Judge
.Tool llrew'or ofC’edartown. No man
in North Georgia was better known
than Judge Brewer, and no man
in the state h'-cl more friends than
he. We lived a neighbor to him
for t'.vo years, and we learned to
love him us a child would lovs its
father.
In th-9 death of this venerable
judge Polk County has lost an ef¬
ficient ordinary, his children a
devoted and loving father and the
community in which he had lived
a kind and obliging neighbor.
Peace to his ashes.
THEN AND NOW.
*Vt Baltimore, Md., in 1840, : 1
national convention, the demo-
cratic party adopted the following
plank as a part of its platform :
“Resolved. That congress has no
power to charter a United States
bank . i ; that ,, , we believe ... such i an „ m- •
stl,n,iM1 of '’"“‘"J' h08t,l . ‘‘!'
mm
to the best interests of the eoun-
try, dangerous to our republican
institutions and the liberties of
the people, and calculated to place
the business of the country within
the control of a concentrated men-
ey power, and above the laws and
the will of the peoph

gerous and deadly institution” as-
sembled at the same place and tie-

that it shah he permitted to issue
its own note’s without security.
Where is democracy today?
Does il raise its voice against
tlm “deadly imitation” and hurl
its vote against the breastwork of
pin toe racy? It is sad, but true,
that democracy skulks to the cav¬
erns of the bankers , and receives
orderscf the dav, then bonds are
given in violation of law, Shame
to Hie man who talks of Jefferson¬
ian democracy in this day of cor¬
poration subser. iency!
The people will soon be ding-
donged with the song that times
are getting bettor. Well, just' lot
us admit, for the sake of being
agreeable, that they are. Who
made them bad? Who brought
on these hard times? If the pres¬
ent systems are such as will let
certain powers make times good
or bad, how will the people ever
know what to expect? Do you
know?
It suems.now that war with
Spain is inevitable,, and that the
United States will recognize the
independence of Onba. The repub¬
lican steering committee has turn¬
ed over to the foreign relations
committee a resolution demanding
ci-sation or Cuba, „ , and , ac-
war m
know lodging the republic. 1 he
resolution authorizes the president
to vise the army and navy to pro-
cure peace on the island, and aid
in the establishment of an inde-
pendeut government.

Let no populist become discour-
aged; a brighter day is dawning
for ns if weonly remain firm. We
have brought a large majority or
the democrats to our way of think-
mg 6 on some of the most important 1
issues. Our party is a necessity j
ami must continue to grow. i

TRIBUNE X-RAYS.
Why is Tom Watson like n
of hay? You can’t tell, can you? j
Why it's because asses nibble all
him!
When you hear these little sim-
1 in-headed fellows abusing and
misrepresenting the leaders of the
populist party it is a healthy sign,
and should encourage patriots to
push ahead.
Some of these little squirrel-
jawed correspondents of democrat¬
ic sheets are continually trying
to throw mud on the good name of
Hon. Thos. E. Watson. Poor lit-
fellows; how my heait bleeds
for them. They don’t even under¬
stand an almanac, let alone de¬
mocracy or what it takes to con-
stituto a statesman, and they eeem
to blame Tom for their mental
weakness.
Weep! little children weepII
Georgia has placed a gold bug of
goldbugs at the head of her demo¬
cratic state committee, and the
“free-silver-or bust”
heelers throughout the state ap-
1 plaud this as evidence that the
party has assumed , a „ “broad , and ,
liberal opposition to a policy of
proscription and mark you, gen¬
tie reader, this is being done while
Willie Jfnnik is traversing the
southern states extolling the beau*
ties of free coinage and abusing
goldbugs at 50 cents admission
fee. Such has ever been, is now,
and ever will be'democracy—a
bundle of inconsistency, a nionu-
mellt o{ hypocraey, a compost heap
of treachery, fraud and deceit!

When you see fit to vote for a
reformer—one who is in favor of
good government—you are told by
certain would-be bosslets that you
are “voting the bread out of then-
childrens’ mouths.” Ye gods and
little fishes! That no settle itl!
The democratic district conven¬
tion conies on apace. I have thrown
an X-Ray in this mass of political
corruption and find that there is a
certain young man in this section
of the district, that is suffering
himself to be led to t he execution¬
er’s block to be politically mur¬
dered by those “who contr U * *. ?? It
takes some folks a long time to
open their eyes, but when the light
once penetrates their befuddled
brain they will find to their sor¬
row that they ain’t in it when it
comes to dividing out the offices
Said a democrat in my hearing

the other day; “Well, there is

known a few offices to change

list papers,” too ; and judging from
